    The crew/dive masters were all super patient and flexible! Great way for some of us to dive and some snorkel. The reef was beautiful and surprisingly not as deep as expected..could just about see the same amount of stuff snorkeling vs diving! Loved it overall! Ps-the boat does not supply towels

    Memorable experience. Quite a novice which meant I wasn’t comfortable in the first snorkeling session. Received lot of support, guidance and encouragement with all the right safety measures in place. Bekki and all others were awesome and made me and my family feel safe, comfortable and enjoy the reef experience
